The 1986 "Gran Detroit Farm and Country" car in the 1987 movie "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" is a pivotal element in the film's narrative. This car, based on a 1986 Chrysler LeBaron Town and Country, is a green, wood-paneled convertible that becomes a temporary mode of transportation for the main characters, Neal Paige and Del Griffith, as they navigate a series of comedic and chaotic travel misadventures. The car undergoes numerous calamities, including a malfunctioning power seat recliner, getting sandwiched between two transport trucks, and nearly burning to the ground, adding to the humor and challenges faced by the characters. Despite its mishaps, the car perseveres and continues on, making a lasting impression on Hollywood history. The "Gran Detroit Farm & Country" car is a caricature of the perceived shortcomings of Detroit automobiles, featuring wood-grained sides, oversized fake wire wheel covers, and a big hood ornament, which contribute to its outdated and tacky appearance.
